We discuss the model dependence in the determination of the Wilson coefficient C_7 that governs the radiative electromagnetic decays of B mesons in the Standard Model, by considering various extensions of the effective Hamiltonian used to…
We present a global analysis of the B->K*(->K pi)mu+mu- decay using the recent LHCb measurements of the primary observables P_{1,2} and P'_{4,5,6,8}. Some of them exhibit large deviations with respect to the SM predictions. We explain the…
We study supersymmetric (SUSY) effects on $C_7(\mu_b)$ and $C'_7(\mu_b)$ which are the Wilson coefficients (WCs) for $b \to s \gamma$ at b-quark mass scale $\mu_b$ and are closely related to radiative $B$-meson decays. The SUSY-loop…
We discuss the possibilities of assessing a non-zero $C_{7\gamma}^\prime$ from the direct and the indirect measurements of the photon polarization in the exclusive $b \to s\gamma^{(*)}$ decays. We focus on three methods and explore the…
The anomalies in the measurements of $R_D$ and $R_{D^*}$ continue to provide motivation for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this work, we assume the new physics Wilson coefficients to be complex and find their values by doing a global…
Decays based on the $b\to s\gamma$ transition are expected to yield left-handed photons in the Standard Model, but could be particularly sensitive to New Physics contributions modifying the short-distance Wilson coefficients $\mathcal{C}_7$…

Rare decays of the kind $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B_s\to \phi\mu^+\mu^-$ are key players for testing the Standard Model. The current experimental data for their decay rates and angular observables show tensions with the theoretical…
Measurements of the branching fractions of the semileptonic decays $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\bar\nu_\tau$ and $B_c\to J/\psi\tau\bar\nu_\tau$ systematically exceed the Standard Model (SM) predictions, pointing to possible signals of new physics…
A comparative study of the exclusive rare $B_{c}\rightarrow D_{s}^{\ast}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ ($\ell=\mu, \tau$) decays has been made in the minimal supersymmetric models (MSSM) and the SUSY SO(10) GUT models. In this context, various physical…
The rare four-fold decay $B_s \to K^*(\to K\pi)\mu^+\mu^- $, governed by the flavor-changing neutral current transition $b \to d\mu^+\mu^-$, provides a sensitive probe for testing the Standard Model (SM) and investigating signatures of new…
It is well known that New Physics can contribute to weak decays of heavy mesons via virtual processes during its decays. The discovery of New Physics, using such decays is made difficult due to intractable strong interaction effects needed…
Motivated by the experimental accessibility of rare $B$ decays in the ongoing and planned experiments, we propose to undertake a model-independent analysis of the inclusive decay rates and distributions in the processes \bgamaxs~ and \Bsell…
In this work, a comprehensive analysis for processes related to $b\to c\bar{u}q~(q=d, s)$ transitions are carried out, including new physics contributions. In light of a recent tension between branching fractions for $B_{(s)}\to…
The discovery of New Physics, using weak decays of mesons is difficult due to intractable strong interaction effects needed to describe it. We show how the multitude of "related observables" obtained from B\to K^* \ell^+\ell^-, can provide…
The B -> K^* l^+ l^- (l = mu, tau) is analyzed in a minimally extended Standard Model in which the Wilson coefficients have new CP-odd phases. The sensitivity of the CP asymmetry and lepton polarization asymmetries to the new phases is…
